Some watered-down tempera paint on my scanner…first splatter stuff I did.
Whaddaya think?
Oh…the band is a little-bigger-than-garage band in CO that I found via myspace and offered them some work. Just to get my name out there and get some experience doing this kind of stuff. I don’t think they ever printed this.

you painted directly on your scanner?

Yeah, it was the best way I could think to do it…the scans came out really clean. If there’s a better way though, I’d really like to know. I wiped it off right after the scan…never closed the lid or anything.

umm, paint a white sheet of paper? or a transparency if it’s so important their be no background … why would you paint the glass of your scanner?

yeah dude, dont do that, do black ink on white paper, scan it, bump the contrast, throw it in channels and viola!
shit you can skip channels and go directly to ‘define brush’.
thats my free tip

Whenever I try to scan a white sheet of paper with stuff on it, the paper fibers always leave little annoying dots and grain on the image and stuff…I’m not a TOTAL dumbass…And what’s a relatively inexpensive type of paper that won’t curl up when you paint on it? Card stock?
Go easy, guys…I’m only in high school and I’ve never done or learned about any of this before.

paint a transparency … just paint it like you’d paint the glass and clean it off every time, you’ll only need one, and it’ll save the scanner glass
